LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 13 - blacktip shark
“So there is such an operation?”
“Which black-hearted merchant did the boss’s fish come from? Expose him!”
“I also bought my clownfish from this store. It died in less than two weeks. I thought it was my own hands!”
…
The people were outraged and accused one after another.
“These juveniles are naturally weak, and they definitely don’t come from the Qingyang fishery.” Yu looked at the chubby boss calmly, “If the boss thinks that I am lying and slandering the boss’s reputation, you can ask someone from the Qingyang fishery to come and verify. Once it is verified that I made a mistake in judgment, I am willing to apologize in public.”
The chunky boss looked aggrieved: “You put it simply, when the time comes, where will I go to apologize to you?”
Yuyou said seriously: “I live at No. 115, West City, Huaniao Street, Lanzhou City. Recently, there will be a viewing event held at the Flower, Bird and Fish Market there. If the boss is interested, you can go and see it.”
Take this opportunity to promote the event by the way. Anyway, she doesn’t sell fish, so she’s not afraid of others coming to her door to find trouble. Besides, when she arrived at Flower and Bird Street, that was her territory, with a regiment of fighting partners beside her, who would have the ability to smash her territory?
This event has not been officially publicized yet, and many people do not know the specific situation, and here happens to be the Dongwei Water City, which ranks among the top three in the country for flower, bird and fish. For middle-aged and elderly people, online announcements are not as good as word of mouth.
Yuyou even reported to the house, and the chubby boss could only hold back his breath, and it took a long time for him to say “good”.
The literary youth who was speechless just now was at ease, looked at Yuyou gratefully, and happily said that he would definitely go.
“The little girl is really amazing, why don’t you take a look at the quality of the other fish in his store?” a passerby suggested loudly.
“Yes, yes, let’s take a look.” Everyone agreed.
The chubby boss’s face turned pale, and the wickedness in his eyes instantly turned into complex emotions such as fear, prayer, and annoyance.
Yu You said with a smile: “One of the joys of buying ornamental fish is to test the player’s eyesight. You need to choose carefully and accumulate experience. The fish you raise in this way are the most in line with your heart.”
Everyone let out a disappointed boo, but they didn’t bother too much, and instead continued to criticize the black heart of the chunky boss. Some of the customers who were going to buy fish at this store all ran to the next door.
Yuyou also walked into the aquarium shop next door and picked a cocoa fairy and a yellow strawberry.
Cocoa is a relatively rare little angelfish, which is not suitable for novice breeding. Yellow strawberries are relatively popular, but they are easy to feed and difficult to maintain. If you want to grow a pure and translucent yellow, you must master the changes in water temperature, food, health, emotions and other factors.
“Miss, why did you choose these two fish?” A voice suddenly came from beside him, “In my opinion, their performance is very average, and it seems that they are not suitable for mixed breeding.”
Yuyou turned his head to look, and found that it was the literary youth who was talking just now.
Listening to the puzzlement and asking for advice in his tone, Yu You explained casually: “They are really not doing well now, but their quality is good. As long as they are carefully nursed, they can be reborn.”
The literary youth’s eyes lit up: “How do you see that they are of good quality? Juvenile fish that have not yet fully grown can only judge their quality from their activity, body shape, eyes, and injury status. These two fish The body color of the fish is still not bright, and its activity is not as good as other juveniles, which seems to be inconsistent with the experimental results you just did?”
Yuyou didn’t answer immediately, but said to the boss who was eavesdropping on the side: “Boss, the price is agreed, 800 coke cents and 80 strawberry fish.”
“Cough, okay, I’ll help you install it right away.” The boss laughed dryly, “I’ll give you a half, I won’t regret it.”
Yuyou thanked him, then turned his head and said to the literary youth: “I judge the quality of a fish, not by its appearance, but by its potential.”
“Potential? What do you think?” The literary youth asked.
“Let’s put it this way, the fish of the boss just now has a potential of at most 3 points. No matter who raises this kind of fish, it will not be well raised, and it will not be raised for a long time; if the potential reaches 4 or 5 points, as long as it is properly raised, it will not be raised until the end of its life. However, no matter whether it is a novice or an expert, it is impossible to raise a fine product; if the potential reaches 6 or 7 points, there will be a clear difference between a novice and an expert; if it reaches 8 points or more, even a novice may raise a fine product. There is a saying: the masters are bullish, the newbies rely on gambling.”
The literary youth was speechless and said a lot, but in fact he didn’t say anything.
“Then how much do you think the potential of your two fishes can be rated?” His stubbornness came up again.
Yuyou pondered for a while, and replied: “Cocoa cents 6 points, yellow strawberries 7.5 points.”
The literary youth said incredulously: “This kind of ordinary strawberry fish has higher potential than Cocoxian?”
You must know that among the seawater ornamental fish, angelfish is a relatively difficult fish to raise.
Yuyou’s judging criteria are different from secular criteria. The potential she talks about includes not only physical condition, but also spirituality, and the rarity of the species is secondary. There are pros and cons in any species, just as there are mediocre people and geniuses in humans. Although most people are reluctant to admit it, this disparity is indeed innate. However, whether you can live a wonderful life depends on your personal fortune and your acquired growth environment.
What she is doing now is to find out the “genius” hidden in all living beings, create a good growth environment for them regardless of their origin, and maximize their potential.
The literary youth suddenly pointed to the largest aquarium in the store: “What about the blacktip shark? How many points do you think it can give?”
The blacktip shark should be the treasure of this store. It is about 70cm long, huge and domineering. It is very rare on the market. It usually only appears in aquariums, and few ordinary players will raise it. The owner of this shop dares to raise blacktip sharks, which is considered a bold art master.
This blacktip shark has indeed attracted a lot of attention, but all customers who pass by this store will come and take a look.
When Yuyou entered the store before, he naturally noticed the blacktip shark, and planned to take it away after a while. Because it’s dying.
Although blacktip sharks can be kept in aquariums, they are not suitable for this closed environment. The lifespan of captive blacktip sharks is much shorter than that of wild blacktip sharks. In addition, the disease research on marine fish in this era is not as in-depth as freshwater fish. There are not even a few specialized marine fish doctors in a city, and veterinarians are basically responsible for it. Therefore, the mortality rate of marine fish is also much higher than that of freshwater fish.
If this blacktip shark can be saved, Yuyou will try to buy it anyway, but it is powerless now.
Yuyou followed the fingers of the literary youth to look at the black tip shark, which floated quietly in the water and stared at Yuyou with a pair of mindless eyes, as if waiting for something.
“Why don’t you speak, Miss? You haven’t said how much this blacktip shark can score?” The literary youth asked again.
Yu You said lightly: “A blacktip shark that can’t live for a few days, what can I say?”
“What?” The boss and the literary youth shouted at the same time.
“Little girl, don’t talk nonsense!” the boss said displeased, “I have raised this blacktip shark for more than 2 years, and it has always been healthy, how does it look like it won’t live for a few days?”
“Yeah, I also have some research on blacktip sharks. This blacktip shark is in its prime, and its physical functions are very good, and it can live for at least ten years.” An aquarist next to him said.
“Isn’t this little girl quite amazing just now? Why is this a random evaluation?”
“It’s not necessarily a random evaluation, right? Maybe it’s true?”
“The blacktip shark is so small, how could she know at a glance that it won’t live for a few days? Doctors also pay attention to seeing, hearing, and inquiring.”
“She said she was from Lanzhou City. Do you think she was sent to Dongwei Water City to play in the gym?”
“Hey, maybe it’s true! She also mentioned some viewing party, what the fuck, is this trying to promote and attract customers in our Dongwei Water City?”
As soon as this conspiracy theory came out, everyone’s eyes on Yu You suddenly became uneasy, and they almost regarded her as an enemy special element trying to infiltrate our army.
Yuyou: “…” Just be happy.
She had no intention of arguing, and transferred 880 yuan to the boss with her mobile phone: “I’ll give you the money.” Then she left the store with the fish tank.
“Wait.” The literary youth hurriedly followed, intending to ask about the situation of the blacktip shark. Who knows, if he is not careful, the person will disappear.
After the two left, the blacktip shark in the aquarium slowly sank to the bottom of the tank, then swung its tail and hid among the aquatic plants.
The boss glanced at it and muttered dissatisfiedly: “I thought she was a master, but it turned out to be nothing. I would have known that I would not have given her a discount. As expected, she came from a small place like Lanzhou City, and her knowledge is small. Haven’t seen the blacktip shark before, how can you assert that it won’t survive for a few days?”
He spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy this blacktip shark, and he finally bought it. How could he just die?
The boss shook his head, put the unpleasant episode behind him, and continued to entertain the other guests.
Three days later, Yuyou visited several flower, bird and fish markets along the coast, and selected dozens of ornamental fish of good quality. The top-quality mint fairy she was looking for has never been found, not even the top-grade mint fairy.
This kind of ornamental fish can be encountered but cannot be sought. If you can’t find it, it can only be replaced by other gods.
Just as Yuyou was thinking about whether to expand the search range, there was quite a commotion at the Flower, Bird and Fish Market in Dongwei Water City.
The blacktip shark that Yuyou said would not live for a few days is really dying!
The owner of the “Coral Aquarium Shop” is the only one who keeps blacktip sharks in Dongwei Water City. This boss usually has a good reputation and a wide network of contacts. Many aquarists often come to see his blacktip sharks. However, the variety of ornamental fish in his store is not very rich, and he is relatively conservative, and his business is not shy. If it weren’t for the Blacktip Shark Town store, it is estimated that it would not be possible to do it long ago. Last time I relied on Yuyou’s “advertising” to create a trading peak. Later, because of her evaluation of the blacktip shark, she criticized her again and did not ask questions.
As a result, within a few days, the blacktip shark floated on the water without moving, and never ate a single thing again.
The boss was in a hurry, and invited several professionals and senior aquarists to treat the blacktip shark, but in the end they all said they were powerless.
This incident quickly spread throughout the Dongwei Water City Flower, Bird and Fish Market, and nearby aquarists and shopkeepers came to watch. After all, this blacktip shark is still very well-known in Dongwei Water City. However, they were all helpless about the situation with the blacktip shark.
At this time, a fish friend suddenly said: “That little girl’s judgment is actually right? Do you think she will have a way to cure this black tip shark?”
